About Arcobräu

Arcobräu Gräfliches Brauhaus GmbH & Co. KG is a brewery in the Lower Bavarian municipality of Moos, owned by the Arco-Zinneberg family. The company traces back to the Castle Brewery Moos, first documented in 1567, and has existed in its present form since the merger of the family breweries in 1960. With an annual output of around 160,000 hectolitres, it is one of the larger breweries in Lower Bavaria. The range comprises 15 beer varieties as well as seasonal beer specialties, including Helles, Dunkles, wheat beer, Pilsener, Radler and alcohol-free beers; the best-known brand is the Helles Mooser Liesl. The beers are brewed with high-quality Hallertau aroma hops, regional brewing grain, water from the company's own 96-metre-deep mineral water well and yeast from its own pure culture. In addition to its main sales market in Germany, the brewery exports to Europe, the USA and Asia.
